Does anyone remember the Chalet Supper Club of the 1950s?? and Joe Blackwell. He was at least 6' 3" , about 190 , dark hair , very erect posture , always dressed to the n's and a very good looking man. He was business like at all times , never joked around but was nice to everybody at all times. We all called him Mr. Blackwell. If he's alive he would probably be around 85 or 90.
It must have been 1951 when Joanne was seeing him . She , Mickey and I all worked at the "Swiss Chalet Supper Club that he owned It was the most exclusive supper club in Dallas -had live music and dancing to a 3 piece band with a singer. It had it's own radio program which was a big deal in those days. Men had to wear a coat and tie to get in and pay an entrance fee. If they didn't have a coat , the coat check lady at the door had a rack of coats and ties for them to use .Everyone had to bring his own bottle.

Please help!! I have never met this man, Joe Blackwell who is my father I was born in1952 I would love to here from someone who new of this man and the Chalet...

Is this the Chalet which later became the Electric Circus and is now Dixie-Lakewood?

To WrReid, I understand Joe Blackwell has an adopted daughter. Do you have further information on Joe? You might try a firm who deals with finding lost people. Good Luck!
